Hmmm, Buttercup. Is it Topaz Yellow by any chance? We've got one of those... Hope to see you there! Buttercup is/was Monte Carlo yellow with a 1999 repaint. But she's faded now. The 1977 99GL wagonback was painted white when we got it (factory was brown) and we painted it the super bright Lightning...

I've been looking for a reason to go to the SOC this year. 99s are a good one. We'd leave Buttercup (76 99gl ) at home but bring Toad (77 99gl 5dr wagonback).

Thanks for your reply. We did end up having a welder do exactly as you suggested.

This is for my 1988 900 SPG. It is a street car that sees a lot of backroad driving but is not a rally car nor will it be. I sort of hate to muddy up this forum with a general question -- but the rear spring supports (upper, I think you'll refer to these as spring "perch") are bending due ...

I know this is an OLD topic! but wondering if anyone has a source of high quality engine mounts for the Saab 99 at this time? We're redoing a 1977 99GL 5 door/wagonback right now and while the engine is out is the perfect time to get those mounts in place. We have some welding done in the engine bay...

I think those recent posts are coming from someone who is trying to bump up the perceived value of the Saab 99. The white one for $27K was put up and then 8 hours later they'd edited it to say "SOLD" but left the ad up there. That stuff shows up in google results and although the original ...

The author deleted their CL post. What did it look like? There's a wacky CL post I saw recently in the Bay area for a $27000 Orchid White 4 door 76 99. Was that it?

It's not hard to remove the rack with the engine in.. On a lift you have it out in no time at all. On jackstands it's also doable but you will feel it the next morning. :lol: I did it on my '85 C900 by myself when my husband was out of town. Way long ago in 1991. I only had jackstands, no lift. The...

A front seat set would be great. Let me know, also, if they are available. Thanks!

If someone is in Maryland and has time to track a windshield down, there's a chance for you to get one free. Long story short, I bought a Saab glass windshield for my 1976 99 about 10 years ago and the guy I bought it from said he'd send two for only $70 more than one since shipping was the same for...

We've got a cheap set (maybe Harbor Freight) of strut compressors. It works. Not easy. It works.

Bottom line. It works.

I posted this on another forum last year..these little bushings aren't simply round, in addition to the tabs being a important part, the shape is as well. Ours were bigger than the ones from the earlier years. We had spares for a 74 but not for this 76 rack. The light yellow one I'm measuring the ta...
